Traffic will be "slowed significantly" following a three-vehicle collision on Highway 10 in Mono earlier this morning.
According to Dufferin OPP Const. Paul Nancekivell, there are no injuries reported as a result of the collision occurring on Highway 10 between 15th and 20th Sideroads in Mono.
Since construction workers are replacing culverts in the area, however, there likely will be some traffic slowdowns.
"It is already down to one lane because of that," Nancekivell said, referring to the culvert work. "Traffic is going to be slowed significantly."
As a result, police suggest motorists consider using alternative routes like Airport Road or County Road 11.

very good Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on January 31st, 2010
This is a very good DVD if you want to learn triumph. It includes the original by Dai Vernon as well as some amazing variations. I will go over each one briefly.
Original Triumph-The original. When the deck fixes itself the spectators are impressed, when the only card left face down is THEIR CARD they are speechless. This one is quite easy to learn and master.
Difficulty: 5
Overall Rating: 7
Renegade-The easiest triumph on this DVD but still as good as the original. They choose a card, you cut the deck and the deck has fixed itself except their card.
Difficulty: 3
Overall Rating:7
Colour Changing Triumph- One of the best on this DVD. Not only does the deck fix itself, the only one face down is their card, But their card is the only blue one-the rest of the deck is red!!!
Difficulty: 6
Overall Rating: 8
Four Ace Triumph- You shuffle half the deck face up into face down. Instantly the deck fixes itself except for one...two...three...FOUR ACES! Personally i really like this one as it suits my style.
Difficulty: 5
Overall Rating: 8
Emerge Triumphant- Personally i don't really like this one that much but it is still a great effect. The deck fixes itself, their card is the only one turned over, after loads of shuffles the deck if is (brand) new order!
Difficulty: 7
Overall Rating: 7
Triumph Transportation- I also really like this one. You hold a mixed up deck, your spectator holds the fixed deck but instantly they transpose!
Difficulty: 7
Overall Rating: 8
This DVD also teaches you a few sleight and false shuffles.

Great Effect!!! Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on April 2nd, 2010
I really liked this dvd by Oz. It gives you so many variations of a classic card effect. I liked all of them, including Renegade which is one of the best in the spectators hands street magic effects. I have performed it an it kills. Oz' emerge triumphant is really strong visual magic with a killer ending of the cards in brand new order.
Get this now!!!

almost worth it just for Renegade Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on December 30th, 2011
The review "Anonymous from UK on January 31st, 2010" is excellent, but I wanted to add another "thumbs up" for the Renegade Triumph. It looks slightly less elegant but no less magical, with an amazing payoff: it is incredibly easy, can be done entirely in the hands, and has a double kicker ending after the magic seems to happen right in the spectator's hands. It's a wonderful handling both technically and presentationally. The "sleight of hand" required seems so obvious you'll be glad the performance came first because not noticing it will be the only thing that makes you feel your spectators won't; and after a number of performances, nobody suspects a thing!
There are plenty of places to learn the classic routine (I would instead recommend "Michael Ammar - Easy to Master Card Miracles - Volume 1" which will also teach you a ton of other great classics at a lower price) but as someone who likes to affect a certain roughness or clumsiness anyway (which can be easily exaggerated with Renegade), I can't see going back after learning the Renegade handling.
So at the end of the day, I feel like I bought this DVD for one new handling of a classic trick... but still don't feel unhappy about that. Having a powerful impromptu effect I can do anywhere, anytime, with a borrowed deck and no table, and almost no skill... that's a heck of a trick.

Great Classic Made Easy Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on April 15th, 2013
I have only studied magic for a short time; just long enough to have learned what most magicians AND audiences consider Quick and Powerful Illusions or "reputation makers".
Triumph is one of those Classics that astonishes non-magicians...like me :)
I can't express enough how thrilled I was to realize that I actually understood, and could follow, Oz on his teaching of "Renegade Triumph". When it comes to new concepts, especially in an unfamiliar field like "magic", i am a SSSsss...lll...oooo...wwww learner! I had expected at least 10 full replays and 20 "rewinds" of Renegade segments to even begin to understand it. NOT SO!!!
Oz did great at presenting the method and, thanks to Oz, I CAN DO IT!!
His beautiful assistant is a bit distracting but...in a good way :)
Yesterday I watched the "Color Change Truimph" and...I am understanding this one too!!! YAY TEAM!!!
Oz is a fun-to-watch teacher, easy to follow and learn from, and has, with this DVD, provided a resource that can place a true Classic of magic within the skill-set of even a beginner.
VERY very very well done!

Great resource on Triumph! Report this review
Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on April 7th, 2010
Oz did it again; once again he shows his teaching skills and his ultimate way of really reaching out and helping magicians to learn.
Plus, this is a GREAT resource of Triumph material; many of these things aren't original to Oz but to have a catalog of all the good Triumph routines out there is invaluable.
Well explained, practical HD goodness. You won't regret this.

Oz is a terrific teacher. His instructions are clear, concise and very thorough. The routines are great. The production values on the DVD are superb. I recommend this to any card magician who wants to learn this classic effect. Money well spent.

After watching this dvd I was able to amaze many of my friends. A lot of them were completely stunned and speechless. One of my friends screamed and threw the deck across the room when I showed them (then I was told by another friend to make them reappear in new deck order again). Overall amazing trick! Add to cart!

Louisville's CARE for Kids Program Starts with the Heart
How do you boost achievement, reduce racial and economic performance gaps, and nurture happier, healthier, more confident students?
VIDEO: A School District's Initiative for Social and Emotional Learning Pays Off
Running Time: 06:31 min.
When the buses arrive at Breckinridge-Franklin Elementary School, near downtown Louisville, Kentucky, a team of educators stand ready to greet each child by name.
Literacy teacher Robben Seadler is at her post in the main hall, giving smiles and high fives, receiving hugs, and making sure every child starts the day with a greeting from a caring adult who knows her name and something personal about her.
"I like your new pink coat! Did you get it at Target?"
"How's first grade, Ronnie?"
"Jamesy, did you eat this morning? You sure?"
The kids eat breakfast at school -- 94 percent of them qualify for free or reduced-price meals -- and with milk still clinging to the corners of their mouths, they make their way to their classrooms for their morning meeting.
Beginning with these 20-minute daily encounters between students and teacher, the Jefferson County Public Schools (encompassing Louisville and environs) is trying to reform how students become self-aware, caring, and connected to others.
The superintendent and many educators in the trenches here see social and emotional learning as the key to cultivating successful schools and essential to their mission to educate children. They've turned this vision into an ambitious, homegrown initiative called CARE for Kids (Community Autonomy Relationships Empowerment), which experts hold up as a national model.
It's all built on the morning meeting where, as the day begins, students and teachers join in discussions, activities, games, and role-playing that address empathy, collaboration, and personal responsibility. The meeting establishes the class as a community and teaches important social skills. Using carefully chosen strategies, teachers and other adults at school reinforce these lessons throughout the rest of the day.
"What could you stop and think about today?" kindergarten teacher Joanna Clark asks of the 24 kids sitting in a circle in her classroom at Breckinridge-Franklin -- a diverse mix of faces reflecting both the school as a whole and the community at large (49 percent African American students, 41 percent white). Clark is hoping to get them to consider their impact on others.
"I could think about knocking people's paper off the table while they're working on it," replies Kayden. "That might make them feel sad."

Many of these kids come from homes and neighborhoods distressed by poverty, violence, or drugs. When they arrive at school, some may be hungry, angry, scared, or sleep deprived. (A morning greeter once learned that a boy's uncle had been shot; she informed his teacher before class.) The daily ritual of sharing their current state of mind strengthens the relationships between teachers and students and prepares the kids for a day of learning.
What some critics call an overly sentimental approach provides an immediate academic payoff. When a teacher asks a question, nearly half the class confidently raise their hands. Students respect their teachers and work well together in groups. (I saw fifth graders in Seadler's writing class plunge vociferously into a brainstorming session, and just a few minutes later, when Seadler told them to bring down the noise level, they quieted themselves instantly.)
Overall, the environment at Breckinridge-Franklin feels calm and orderly. Having visited scores of schools, I can say that the level of participation and cooperation by students here is startling. "The better the relationship you have with the kids, the more they're going to want to learn, and the more they're going to take ownership of what you're trying to teach them," says Seadler. "And when they feel that way, the behavior problems aren't there."
Seadler, who leads her lessons with an easy, friendly command, is a vision of energy each morning even though she's studying for a master's degree in school counseling and working several nights a week at a nearby pub to pay for it. "For once in my seven years of teaching, I feel like I'm making a difference," she says. "I feel like when the kids walk out the door, they're going to remember me and what they did in my classroom."
Progression and Evolution
CARE for Kids is the creation of Superintendent Sheldon Berman, who successfully established a similar program in Hudson, Massachusetts, before taking over Jefferson County Public Schools, a diverse urban district of nearly 100,000 students, in 2007. Berman, founder and past president of the nonprofit resource center Educators for Social Responsibility, believes in the power of SEL.
"This isn't touchy-feely stuff," he says. "It's core social skills that give kids the knowledge and experience to work effectively with others. This isn't about being nice. It's serious work to create a sense of community and resolve conflicts."
Berman and his colleagues assembled CARE for Kids from various existing models -- including the Developmental Studies Center's Caring School Community, the Northeast Foundation for Children's Responsive Classroom, and Origins's Developmental Designs for Middle School -- and adapted them to suit Jefferson County's needs. The program started in 2008 in 28 elementary schools, where the teachers voted overwhelmingly to participate, and at all 23 county middle schools in the sixth grade.
Now, 55 elementary schools and all teachers in grades 6-7 are involved, and more are slated to join them next school year. Berman reasons that by starting with the people who are most interested, he can demonstrate the power of the program and let its appeal pass virally to other schools.
At the high school level, teacher trainers are weaving CARE for Kids ideas into new reforms, such as collaborative learning and advisories. But they're not enacting the program wholesale, in part because there's less published curriculum available for SEL in the older grades.
Mary Utne O'Brien, vice president for strategic initiatives at the Chicago-based nonprofit organization the Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning (CASEL), praises Berman and his team, adding that their program matches up to the best SEL practices from around the country. What makes their work exceptional, she says, is that they're doing it districtwide, with full support from the top -- which makes it possible to succeed on a broad scale.
In Jefferson County, the elementary program begins with two days of CARE for Kids staff training in the summer. School staff receive a binder full of instructions and activities and five follow-up training sessions during the year. Middle schools get more training for their teacher leaders, who relay key points to their colleagues.
Each school has a CARE for Kids leadership team, composed of the principal and up to three certified staff who support their colleagues throughout the year with district help. Berman estimates that the program costs $800,000 a year in professional-development expenses -- or about $8 per student.
Schools are advised to start simply, focusing on morning meetings. Over time, they build up the program, adding end-of-day meetings, schoolwide community-building events, cross-age buddy activities, parent engagement, and positive discipline. And lest anyone be left out of the loop, the district provides CARE for Kids training to all school-based staff -- including cafeteria workers, custodians, and security guards. Changing the school environment involves everyone's participation.
That CARE for Kids empowers students emotionally is reason enough to applaud the effort. But what's getting folks in Jefferson County doubly excited is evidence that the program also empowers kids to learn better and may provide the foundation on which other reforms can be built. As Bill Perkins, principal of the Frederick Law Olmsted Academy North public middle school for boys, says, "Anybody who's involved in school reform knows that if you don't get the culture right, you're not going to get the test scores right."
Research supports this idea. In a review of 180 school-based studies, researchers found that students' academic-achievement test scores went up an average of 11 percentile points when their schools started SEL programs. This is a larger gain than many other educational programs produce.
"Children who are taught social and emotional skills can wield those skills throughout their education," O'Brien says. "No one says, 'Gee, can we afford to teach reading?' So should it be with social and emotional learning."
How It Works
Breckinridge-Franklin is one of the more advanced CARE for Kids schools in the district, a model of where other schools are expected to go. One hundred percent of its teachers voted to participate in the program, and they have embraced the practices to the point that a sense of community infuses the whole school, adults and children alike.
Carrithers and Olmsted, too, are trailblazers. The districtwide program is in its second year, and even in these model schools, some teachers are further ahead than others. In some classes at Olmsted, Perkins reports, the morning meeting has been implemented so effectively "that kids help map out the agenda, whereas other teachers struggle just to get them in a circle."
Perhaps the greatest challenge teachers face in implementing CARE for Kids is the shift in mind-set required, extending right down to adjustments in the words teachers use with students from moment to moment. Through hours spent at each of the three schools I visited, I could see the program working and see how staff members define the environment by weaving together five essential strategies.
1. Building Community and Setting a Supportive Tone Through Morning Meetings
All for One:

Every one of the key CARE for Kids practices starts here. In these daily sessions, teachers and students agree on how they want their class to feel, behavior-wise. (Read: calm and safe.)
They practice conflict-resolution skills and role-play constructive responses to tough situations. They discuss emotional topics, such as bullying, friendship, and family struggles, and play goofy games to get to know each other better. And they laugh a lot.
In Darren Atkinson's sixth-grade circle at Carrithers one morning, kids are naming every kind of bullying they've seen or experienced: teasing, gossiping, hitting, taunting, cyberbullying, and your-mama jokes.
Atkinson asks, "How would you stop the bullying?" Four or five hands go up. "Tell an adult," several kids say. "Confront them, but not physically; ask them why they said such-and-such about you," offers Terre. A boy suggests defusing the situation with humor.
2. Setting and Reinforcing Expectations -- with Kids' Input
The philosophy involves making kids owners of their own classroom environment (as well as their own learning). So, rather than the teacher announcing the rules for behavior, students set the expectations themselves. Each class creates a list of norms for how they want to treat each other (for example, "Listen when someone else is talking" or "Keep your hands and feet to yourself"), which is posted prominently in the room.
Speed Limit:
Teachers in CARE for Kids schools at all grade levels use Y-charts to help students, as a class, agree on what their behavior should look, feel, and sound like.

In Tammy McBride's class at Olmsted, the sixth-grade boys are explaining the norms for their shared social contract. "I picked 'standing in the circle,'" says Jimy, "because if someone is talking in the circle, they might feel uncomfortable if no one else is standing in the circle to listen to them. They might feel unwelcome." Then they sign the document and shake hands with their class's eighth-grade mentor, Ryan.
A key tool for keeping clear expectations is the Y-chart: literally a big Y on which classes write what a given activity should look, sound, and feel like. (They gauge sound in levels zero through four, from silence to outside voice.) At Breckinridge-Franklin, for instance, DeNay Speaks pauses before sending her fourth graders off to work in pairs classifying polygons.
"Who can tell me what needs to happen when we're working in a group?" she asks. The kids chorus back, "Listening to each other." "Level-one voice." "Care about your partner." "Help them if they need help." And where should they look if they need a reminder, she asks? The class norms and the Y-chart for group work.
The message is clear: This is your classroom. You make the rules.
3. Directly Teaching Social and Emotional Skills
Abilities like empathy, kindness, and self-control aren't the kinds of things we usually think of as teachable; conventional wisdom says those are just innate personality traits. But the central proposition of CARE for Kids is that these qualities are entirely transferable -- and can be learned through instruction and practice, just like grammar and arithmetic.
In Joanna Clark's morning meeting at Breckinridge-Franklin, the kindergartners conclude by discussing what to do if someone does something that upsets them. The answer, of course, is talk about it. They practice by reading aloud constructive "I-statements" Clark has written on a poster. A sketch of a little boy's face says, "When you cut in front of me in line, I feel sad because I walked and got there first." A little girl's face says, "Sorry, I will not do that again."
Upstairs, as Andrea Panucci's fifth graders prepare to review their multiplication tables in pairs, she says, "Before you find your buddy, let's remember what we do when we disagree over what the right answer is." The children work calmly and cordially together, even when their answers don't match.
Five minutes into the exercise, Panucci, a 13-year teaching veteran, says, "At my other schools, I would already have had kids fighting by now." Afterward, she asks students to reflect on what they did well. A blond boy named Brandan nails it: "When we thought that someone had a wrong answer, we didn't argue about it. We checked it over."
4. Using Precise Teacher Language
Jefferson County educators say word choice is the hardest part of CARE for Kids, because it's the most subtle and personal aspect for teachers. The distinctions can be as fine as saying "walk" instead of "don't run." CARE for Kids instructs teachers to use language that reminds and redirects students, rather than condemns them, prompting students to reflect on their behavior and emphasizing the deed, not the doer.
Clark, for one, says that after embarking on CARE for Kids, she found herself frequently using the word remember. When two boys in her class get rowdy rolling dice in a math game, she squats behind them and says, "Friends, do you remember the rule for rolling? Show us."
It works for a few minutes. Then the boys (and their dice) are bouncing loudly again, and Clark is back, speaking more firmly this time, but still making them the guides for their own behavior. "Hey, boys, listen to me. What's the rule for working over here? If we're going to work as a team . . . " They finish her sentence: "Be a team."
5. Practicing Developmental Discipline
With this concept, Berman explains, consequences for bad behavior must be directly and logically related to the offense and help the child learn how to be responsible for his actions. "Take an incident in which a student pushes another," he says. "You might say, 'Let's give that student a detention to stay after school.' But that isn't a direct consequence. The student doesn't necessarily learn anything from that. The appropriate consequence may be to write a letter of apology."
At the middle school level, when students act out and need time to settle down, teachers put them in short Take a Break, or TAB-in, sessions, like time-outs, in a quiet corner of the room. If a student needs more serious downtime, teachers can send him to a colleague's classroom.
Typically, the buddy teacher will quickly check in with the child, get him started writing his reflections on his behavior, and then carry on with class. For children with the most severe behavior problems, CARE for Kids doesn't always suffice, and schools still use suspensions as a last resort.
The Impact
"When I first started, this school was crazy," says Seadler, who is in her sixth year at Breckinridge-Franklin. "Kids had to be restrained -- there was no sense of control."
Suspensions and discipline referrals fell 50 percent from 2006 to 2008 after the arrival of a new principal, Alicia Averette. In the first year of CARE for Kids, those numbers dropped in half again. Now, room 209, once used for detentions, is employed for small-group instruction.
The school's tardies and early dismissals have declined from 2,770 to 2,410 per year, a 13 percent drop. And the percentage of students scoring in the two highest levels, "Proficient" and "Distinguished," on the Kentucky Core Content Test rose in reading (from 59 to 60), writing (sharply, from 34 to 45), and math (from 61 to 69) in the program's first year.
Though it's impossible to prove that CARE for Kids caused the academic boost, Averette believes that by enabling kids to work well together and have discussions about learning, it did.
At other schools, says Panucci, who came to Breckinridge-Franklin as CARE for Kids began, "it seemed like you spent 70 percent of your time on discipline and 30 percent on teaching. Now it's maybe only 20 percent discipline."
In-school suspensions at Carrithers dropped 9 percent in fall 2009, and out-of-school suspensions declined as well. Time-outs fell by 52 percent. In the first six weeks of 2008, students failed a total of 411 classes; in 2009, the figure was just 195.
"I haven't been called a b---- for two years. That's really good," says Principal Pat Gausepohl, laughing. "And kids come up and hug me -- kids who wouldn't hug their own mother."
At Olmsted, the all-boys middle school, where 90 percent of the 800 students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch and one in three has special needs, the strategy is working. Discipline referrals there have been cut in half, and scores on the Kentucky Core Content Test spiked substantially last year in all areas except reading. The percent of students scoring "Proficient" or "Distinguished" jumped from 15 to 26 in math, from 14 to 28 in science, from 14 to 23 in social studies, and from 14 to 24 in writing.
Jefferson County aims to expand CARE for Kids to all 89 of its elementary schools and all grades of its middle schools by 2011. This is a long process -- educators at the most advanced schools believe it will take four more years to implement CARE for Kids to its fullest potential. Berman won't mandate schools to participate, but he expects that, given the results, almost all will eventually choose to.
The Rewards
"I'll tell you a secret," Darren Atkinson says to his Carrithers students early in the year. "I love each and every one of you. I may sometimes hate what you do, but I love you as a human being."
He tells me later, "There's probably about a quarter of the kids in that room who have never heard those words before. When these kids see and believe that you mean it, they want to work for you."
Some students, especially in the upper grades, act "too cool" for CARE for Kids, says Gausepohl. "We're focusing on the 80 percent who buy into it and hoping something will rub off on that other 20 percent."
At the very least, those 20 percent will get a calm, safe, supportive school environment. And Seadler wagers they'll get even more: "This program has done more for our kids than anything I've ever done with reading and writing and math. It's going to follow them wherever they go. And it's going to help them to be respectful, caring, wonderful human beings."

Grace: Thanks for this story on this exceptional SEL implementation. It is always to a pleasure to hear the latest about Superintendent Sheldon Berman and his work in Jefferson County Public Schools. We wish we saw more district-wide support for SEL.
School DayZ
At the middle school level we are doing some work with my book, School DayZ which features 68 middle school vignettes that students discuss both pre and post reading. The book is on the Incentivepublications.com website and contains black line masters for classroom use. Kids are responding positively and we have done some school wide drama presentations regarding these social and ethical issues that challenge kids every day
Ron Klemp
Excellent reporting
Terrific story -- this is the kind of detail schools need to build interest in developing similar programs.
PTA partnerships with JCPS
As the 15th District PTA President (which oversees all the PTA/PTSAs in the JCPS public school system) I know first hand how positive the CARE for Kids program is. Our children benefit from this experience because it establishes that school is a community, that your classmates are your partners, and that we must all work collaboratively and creatively in and around the school day. I often tell my children (my sons especially) that school is a commitment. They have an obligation to perform the tasks assigned and respect their teachers (and school administrators). That they need to help their peers and other students so that the classroom is a positive environment. We know that if a student is struggling, the focus of the teacher, etc, will be on that student and that other students, who are excelling or maintaining, will be set aside to focus energy and resources on the student in crisis. CARE for Kids gives all students a chance to matter, to know that their opinion is important and valuable. Morning circle, a regular routine at my son's Waldorf based elementary school, acknowledges every student in a positive manner. Teachers who ask for student input on class rules then have student awareness of class rules. Sure, it may seem obvious that we don't interrupt, but when all the children agree that that is a good "rule" then it seems as if less interruptions occur. With any program, parent support is crucial. Without parent involvement then CARE for Kids, or any other system, will falter. I look forward to seeing this initative grow and for the PTA and parents to be part of the conversation concerning classroom management. After all, who knows our children better than we do?

Fab fab funny programme, Paddy has done so much for the travelling community, we are prejudice in this country because the travellers are different, I feel travellers really dislike us and so stay away from them, There is a huge amount of distrust and am scared I guess of them, for various reasons, this show has broken barriers and showed we are all the same, we may never truly mix and why should we, they must keep their culture but hopefully we can all respect each other. And Paddy and hislovely family have gone a long way towards this. :))
i was so moved by this, years ago my haidressing salon, suddenly, became the centre of a building site, when the council decided to put lot's of high rise flat's down, the travelers moved in and saved my life, they used my salon, and the unconditional love they give off, when you treat them correctly, with respect and the same kind of love they give you, it's wonderful, we don't need material things we just need brother/sister hood. my family were travelers years ago, and what wonderful stories of unconditional love i hear. and if annmarie should ever read this, who was on the site in alvaston, derby, i do miss you and all your family. god bless you all.
shows a side of them. that's not them down the track having the copper away... welldone ch5

This programme just goes to prove how we can all learn from each other no matter where you come from or where you are. People should realise you are never better than anyone else and we all have something to learn and something to teach. Well done Paddy and Sally for enlightening us all.
the moment all the children sang happy birthday to Sally was priceless
This documentry goes to show that there is good & bad in all breeds of people, & because of the few we all get tarred with the same brush which is a shame

He and his family show that their not all bad people, looking forward to watching tonite's episode. And sally, is also a charmer, and I also agree with her that men should help around the home even if it is little things, as well as bring in the bread and butter.

The following cars represent the most technically advanced available.
Who needs big speakers? Anyone who wants to feel the music, which is exactly what makes the Tekton M-Lore towers so much better than any small speaker.
Tunisian tourism groups are betting the force of "Star Wars" fans can help them save the one-time desert home of Anakin Skywalker.
Coming in four different colors, the Xperia M also sports a 4-inch screen, a dual-core processor, and NFC.
The Vizio M-Series offers a potent combination of excellent design, decent picture quality, and a pocket-friendly price.
The Motorola Electrify M is a well-priced and compact option on U. S. Cellular, but the larger Samsung Galaxy S3 is the better deal if size doesn't matter.
While it provides one of the best touch-screen experiences in its class and the compact body is quite comfortable to shoot with, the Canon EOS M's disappointing performance and blah feature set make it less attractive than competitors.
The 60-inch Vizio M1d-A3R doesn't quite offer the very best value for money in the company's range, but nevertheless features fine picture quality in a large size.
A generous feature set, rugged construction, and warm, detailed sound with powerful bass guarantees the V-Moda M-100's strong appeal for audiophiles with a flexible budget.
The design and specs of the affordable LG Optimus M+ surpass its predecessor's, but its data connection is poor even for MetroPCS.
While not as advanced as the Optimus handsets on other carriers, the Optimus M is still a great entry-level Android phone for MetroPCS customers.

Hi Guys,
I have installed Leopard 10.5.4 on Lenovo T60.
The Video is based on XT1300.
I tried several fixes, but the 2 options are:
- NatitX1300 (from Diabolik), which works fine for external monitor, but the LCD is always off
- ATIRadeonX1000, but no possibility to change resolution and some 'pixel noise'.
In all cases, no CI/QE, no way to watch movies/video from file or DVD.
Is there any recent update to make this card working?

Case Number # 1780, 2500
Earthjustice is fighting for stronger limits on ozone or smog -- pollution linked to premature deaths, thousands of emergency room visits, and tens of thousands of asthma attacks each year. Ozone is especialy dangerous to small children and senior citizens, who are often warned to stay indoors on polluted days. Smog pollution can also severely damage forests and plants, stunting their growth and increasing the risk of die-off from disease. Unfortunately, smog standards recently adopted by the U.S. EPA are far weaker than recommended unanimously by the agency's own science advisors, leaving public health and the environment at great risk. Earthjustice is challenging these standards on behalf of public health and conservation groups.

North Georgia Athletics Looking for Students' Input
DAHLONEGA, Ga. – Later this month, the North Georgia College & State University athletic department will be sending out an interest survey to all full-time undergraduate students to gauge interest in athletics.

Intramural and club sports are overseen by Student Activities, while intercollegiate sports are governed by the Athletic Department, the Peach Belt Conference and the NCAA.
Full-time students will receive an email on Tuesday, Nov. 13 with a link to the survey which will remain open for two weeks. The survey will close on Friday, Nov. 30.
Director of Athletics Lindsay Reeves invites every full-time student enrolled as an undergraduate fill out the survey once. Please take five minutes to complete this short survey and provide feedback about your athletic interests and abilities.

About Furry Friends Adoption and Clinic
About Our Shelter...Furry Friends formerly Safe Harbor was founded in 1985 and was the second humane organization in the state of Florida to open a low-cost spay / neuter hospital. With between 7-10 million animals a year being killed in our nation's shelters, Furry Friend's mission first and foremost has always been to reduce the over population of unwanted pets in our community. We do not believe that euthanasia is the answer to dealing with the pet over population crisis. Our charitable hospital offers low-cost spay / neuter services and medical assistance for everyone and free services for pet owners who are on disability, social security or who are experiencing financial hardships. We have sterilized over 75,000 animals over the past 24 years, preventing hundreds of thousands of unwanted puppies and kittens from being born and thousands more from being needlessly destroyed. Furry Friends has never turned an animal in need of medical care due to their owner's inability to pay.
A few years after establishing the charitable hospital, Furry Friends opened one of the only true no-kill shelters in South Florida. The shelter reserves it's space for animals who have been abused, neglected, injured and abandoned. No breed is discriminated against, any animal in need is given shelter at Furry Friends. We are a charity surviving on donations alone, and our capacity is limited. For the welfare of the resident animals, we cannot exceed our capacity. Cages are not vacated by routine euthanasia. They become available only through adoption.
